I believe Mega will start shipping again with availability towards the end of January (from what I've seen from some vendors online). I wouldn't be surprised if they wait until after SHOT since they're introducing some new stuff there.

That said, if you happen to find a matched set, I'm happy to take the lower off your hands and we can split the price. I've been waiting for the MATEN lowers to become available again. There was a guy on CG selling a set for $1150 (way overpriced), but he had apparently bought it at more than the MSRP and didn't want to budge.

i just paid 1700 for a free floating lr-308 upper only with an 18" bull barrel. i had to order it, and i just hope i get it anytime soon.
i went to the gun store a few weeks ago to get one, they guy told me he was out of everything, wasnt even going to try to find an upper, and i should be happy i even have a lower.
